Hippocampe Chairs
These allow people with reduced mobility to move around freely between changing rooms, showers, and waterfronts. They can be submerged in water to simplify access to swimming. The seat and footrest cover is made of comfortable hydrophobic foam that protects its user.

These chairs were made possible by a generous donation from the Port Stanley Lion's Club (approximately $5,000 each).
